Original Press Release:



New Guardian(TM) Variable Speed Drive is an Effective Digital Solution for Production Control



Willis, Texas - R&M Energy Systems has released its new Guardian(TM) Variable Speed Drive (VSD), an effective digital solution for production control. The Guardian VSD provides the operator complete control and monitoring of progressing cavity pump systems. A combination of precise torque and speed control in a single durable package is the key to providing maximum production, energy efficiency and total protection of PC pumping systems.

The proprietary software offered in the Guardian incorporates a complete model of the total PC pumping system. The highly effective sensorless control protects down-hole equipment and maximizes production by providing continuous feedback of torque, speed, pump efficiency, fluid rate and estimated down-hole pressure.

Fluid level over the pump intake is controlled with manual speed adjustments, or automatically with the system software. The Guardian's pump-off control capability maximizes well production for any given inflow characteristic. The system saves energy with a power optimizer to reduce electric utility costs in any inflow rate.

Other Guardian VSD Features Include:
· Down-hole pump, motor and rod speed and torque monitors
· Pump flow monitor and production accumulator
· Embedded rod string, tubing, casing, reservoir and pump model
· Fluid level monitor and control
· Interface software for remote monitoring by network servers
